New Survey: What Companies Should We Buy From, Work For And Invest In?

What are the principles by which we want businesses to operate? And how do we know that they live by those principles? Nowadays, many initiatives and frameworks exist to help people make informed choices about which businesses to support. Ours, Responsible 100, is one of five that has been invited by Tomorrow’s Company to next month’s Anthropy conference to present and explain its unique approach.

Our founder Michael will join the panel “What Companies Should We Buy From, Work For And Invest In?”, where a representatives from five of the UK’s leading frameworks and certifications will address three key questions and then be cross examined by the co-chairs:

• What is the problem that your framework is seeking to solve?
• What are the underlying principles in your approach?
• How do you ensure the businesses you certify do the things they claim?

We’ve helped to design a survey to support this panel and its important inquiry. It asks people to select the attributes they—as consumers, employees and investors—wish to support and promote in businesses. 

Please take this survey to have your say. It doesn’t take long – 5 minutes should do it. Your participation is much appreciated!
